Frigidaire oven not working in bake setting

My oven was new in 2005 and all of the sudden it does not work in the bake setting. The top burners work and it works on broil but when I put it on bake both elements do not work. What could the problem be? I would like to fix this myself if possible.

    I found the problem. It was the lower element. I replaced it and now the oven works great!

    I have the same problem - any advice on how to fix? Do I just unscrew and plug in the new element and away I go?



    Thank you!

I am not a rocket scientist but this popular answer is so absurdly wrong. FIRST of all read the situation correctly it states "when I put it on bake both elements do not work" that means its ELECTRIC.Duh.

Your range sounds like it is need of an oven igniter .over time the igniter can become weak and it looks like it is glowing but the part itself is not pulling enough amperage to open your gas valve, this nis a saftey feature I would start there those parts generaly run less than 100 bucks!

My gas oven (Frigidaire Gallery) is not preheating or coming up to temperature. The broiler and stove top burners work fine.

Most probable cause is a weak bake burner ignitor,if you can remove the floor of the oven and see a orange glow but within one minute thier is no flame the ignitor that glows is weak and needs to be replaced,if no glow at all ,if your capable find the 2 wires to the bake ignitor,using a volt meter set to AC volts there should be 120vac to the ignitor. If their is 120 vac and absolutly no glow the ignitor is cracked and needs to be replaced,if their is not 120 vac it could be the gas safety valve or control

Oven elements do not heat?

The oven bake element has burnt out and needs replacing. Shut the power off to the range. Remove the element mounting screws located inside the oven above or below each end of the element. Carefully slide the element out, disconnect electrical wiring. Install new element.

Oven will not light. it is a frigidaire model #

When the bake igniter becomes weak or burns out, your oven will not bake. The bake igniter is usually mounted on the oven burner. It's about 1 inch by 4-8 inches (depending on the model), and comes in round or flat styles. If you don't see the igniter glow at all, it's probably burned out. Replace the igniter if found defective. Note: one of the exceptions could be that your oven is set to automatic mode instead of manual. If this is the case, set your oven to manual mode and check again.

If the bake igniter glows red and not bright yellow or white, it is probably because it is too weak. When this happens, the safety valve will not let the gas out into the oven burner. A weak igniter must be replaced.

A faulty igniter is probably the most common cause, however there are others:

  1. Defective thermostat
  2. Defective selector switch
  3. Defective gas safety valve
  4. Defective gas valve coils

Frigidaire Oven - lights are on but no heat from oven or burners

You must check your incoming power for 220 volts. You have lost one leg of your power. Either a bad breaker or bad wall outlet or bad range cord.

TOP BURNERS WORK BUT OVEN DOES NOT WORK AT ALL.

Sounds like a heating element. Same thing happend to my oven. You can find them around 50-60 dollars. Veryy easy to install, just remove a couple of screws and remove old element and put in new one. Make sure you shut off power to oven firstg of course.
